Getting our Kennels Prepared for the WINTER!

Every department here at the St. Tammany Humane Society is important. Whether it’s the Vet Team who takes care of our animals or the Adoption Counselors who assist in finding new homes, we all have an integral part in our overall mission - to save animals.

There is one department, one very special department, that makes sacrifices every day. Sacrifices that some of us couldn’t even imagine. That department is our Kennel Staff! Kennel employees are the first ones here in the morning and the last ones to leave. They work on Saturdays, Sundays and even holidays. They work in the cold, the heat and the rain. They don't ask for anything and they're not picky. They just enjoy coming to work everyday and taking care of the animals. While this staff may have one of the most rewarding jobs (making real relationships with our shelter animals,) their day-to-day work is far from glamorous. They are truly the heart and soul of the shelter.

For these reasons we’d like to take a second and recognize their needs for this coming winter. In appreciation, we’ve created a wishlist of items just for Kennels. The cold finally hit us for the first time this year and it’s time we get this staff prepared! In true Kennel Staff fashion, the list is not expensive, just practical. If you are able to purchase any of the items on their Amazon List HERE, it would be greatly appreciated. Join us in acknowledging the employees who truly make a difference here at the St. Tammany Humane Society!
